Stomach bloating is a common symptom of indigestion, which can usually be relieved through certain medications and lifestyle adjustments. If bloating is severe, the following types of medications may be considered:
1. Digestive enzyme preparations: Such as pancreatin and amylase, which can help break down food and reduce the burden on the stomach.
2. Antacids: Such as hydrotalcite and omeprazole, which can reduce gastric acid secretion and alleviate stomach discomfort.
3. Prokinetic agents: Such as domperidone tablets and mosapride, which can enhance gastric motility, promote duodenal peristalsis, improve gastric emptying, and rapidly relieve stomach bloating.
4. Anti-flatulence medications: Such as simethicone, which can reduce intestinal gas and alleviate symptoms of bloating.
5. Traditional Chinese patent medicines: Such as Xiangsha Yangwei Pills and Baohewan, which also have certain effects in treating abdominal bloating and gas.
Medication should be taken under the guidance of a qualified physician. At the same time, improving eating habits and avoiding unhealthy dietary behaviors can also help relieve stomach bloating. If symptoms persist or worsen, prompt medical attention is recommended.
